Chapter 1051: Two Bottom Lines (Part 3)
After all, three heroes died, and now the Holy Hall only has one Pope left.
They want the association to restrain me.
"Attacking the Holy Hall, I wonder if it will attract that Divine Spirit!" Wu Heng muttered.
As he was pondering, the door opened a crack, and Mini peeked in, "Master, Lilith Leader has completed her training and is waiting for you in the living room on the first floor. She said there's something to discuss."
"Alright!" Wu Heng got up and went downstairs.
First floor living room.
Lilith was gracefully and elegantly sipping tea on the sofa. Upon seeing Wu Heng come downstairs, she spoke in a cold tone, "The association over there sent a message. From now on, the association will no longer intervene in the conflict between you and the Holy Court..."
Then, Lilith explained the intercepted message in more detail.
After she finished speaking, she continued, "But there are two bottom lines: it shouldn't affect ordinary professionals or cause significant impact."
Wu Heng's eyes narrowed, showing a look of surprise, then he said, "The Holy Court ambushed me, and they still have the face to complain to the association?"
"I already discussed this matter with Hadara, the headquarters knows the situation," Lilith continued, "The headquarters won't interfere in this anymore. It's both good and bad for you, so be more cautious and don't show off."
"Got it, don't worry!" Wu Heng took the tea Mini handed him and took a sip.
Lilith continued, "Also, regarding the two bottom lines the association mentioned, ordinary professionals also include the basic priests. Avoid killing them unless absolutely necessary, so the Holy Court won't have an excuse to get the association involved against you."
"Alright, my target has always been the higher-ups of the Holy Court." Wu Heng reiterated.
Lilith responded with a "Hmm" and then said, "I've placed a Secret Speaker in the association at the Holy Hall, and set up a radio station. I'll notify you if there's any news."
"That's great, I'm just missing intelligence." Wu Heng blinked, "When I have time, I'll properly repay you."
Lilith glared at him and then stood up, saying, "This afternoon, I'm taking Xiao Xiao out to sea for fishing. I've rented a fishing boat. Do you want to come?"
"Next time," Wu Heng said helplessly, "I haven't finished my training plan yet."
"Alright, I'm leaving first." Lilith called out to Xiao Xiao from afar, and the two of them held hands and left the Island Lord's Mansion.
Wu Heng also got up, called out to the Lady, and headed to the third stage training site.
...
Four days passed in the blink of an eye.
Wu Heng continued to persist in training the third stage of the 'Body Refining Technique'. Every day, amidst the fiery energy tempering, his skin indeed became smoother, glowing softly like a newborn baby.
However, his body hair continued to suffer, just barely growing into stubble before turning to ash in the flames.
Especially Philippa, who, after staying overnight together, came up with the term 'silkworm baby' the next day.
In an instant, the term spread throughout the house.
On the other side, under the promotion of 'Card', the Wood Elf Sisters successfully broke through to Level 19, taking their strength to a new level.
Proving it was indeed possible to level up, the sisters became even more diligent.
Sometimes, late at night, Wu Heng, coming downstairs, could still see the elder of the Wood Elves, 'Ailuria', undergoing intense training.
In the bedroom, Wu Heng leaned against the headboard, with a phone in front of him.
On the screen, Wen Mansha wore a black lace nightgown, with a slightly open collar revealing a swath of pale skin, appearing ever so lazy and alluring like a sister-in-law.
Behind her, Andre Willow cradled a sleeping infant, her fox ears gently twitching as she gazed softly at the camera.
"Is the daughter tired?" Wu Heng asked softly.
Little Wu Qin, who had been laughing heartily, was now asleep with her eyes closed.
Andre Willow chuckled softly, "She must be tired."
Wen Mansha said, "Take her to rest, and let the Ghost Hag Skull watch over her."
Andre Willow nodded and said to the screen, "Master, I'll take Qinqin back to her room first."
"Alright!" Wu Heng nodded.
Andre Willow left with the child in her arms.
Wen Mansha's eyes suddenly turned sultry, lips lightly bitten, "Master... I miss you so much."
"I miss you all too." Wu Heng said with a smile.
Wen Mansha sighed suddenly, "I should have let Wei'er manage the city, and gone to Gold and Silver Island with you as a little maid."
Twisting a lock of her hair around her finger, "Lundham City is developing better and better, but the time to meet you is becoming less and less."
"But you're the sister-in-law of the Pinned Gang, and that's our last base over there," Wu Heng continued, "Once the child is older, you can take her by train to the island. Anyway, there's the radio contact, it won't delay things."
Wen Mansha shook her head, "I just said it like that. Over there, you have presidents and stewards. I'll just stay here. You can come back and visit when you have time, and don't forget us mother and daughter."
"How could I forget? Don't talk nonsense." Wu Heng feigned anger.
Wen Mansha smiled, "Master, thinking back, meeting you... has truly been the greatest fortune of my life."
"I'm also very fortunate." Wu Heng smiled back.
Back then, he was in torment inside, his former world had become doomsday, nearly being schemed against by the former steward in Black Stone Town, his body seized, and he was in a constant state of tension, not trusting anyone.
Later, with Wen Mansha, Mini, and Andre Willow, everything began to get better.
The two of them chatted for a long time, until Wen Mansha's eyelids started to droop, before reluctantly hanging up.
As the screen went dark, Wu Heng gazed out the window.
He still needed to find time to visit Wen Mansha and Slyther.
...
Lilith's Mansion.
The bedroom door opened, and the butler stood at the entrance, addressing the wooden coffin at the center, "Miss, there's a message from the radio."
Swish~!
The heavy coffin lid was pushed open, a tender white hand rested on the edge, then sat up.
Lilith sat up and softly asked, "Which radio station?"
"It's the one from the Holy Temple Secret Speaker." The butler bowed and handed over a piece of paper, "I've recorded the information."
Lilith took it and glanced at it, her eyes narrowing, "The Holy Hall is preparing for the new Holy Seat selection, and at the same time, they've added new names to the blasphemer list..."
